John 1. Biair,s Opinion


John /. Blair, who is n Kansas City
letting the contract for his new road,
expressed his views of the financial
situation very freely to a reporter. "Be.
fore / came west" said he, II noticed a
growing tightness in railroad money and
1 have been looking for Just such q howl
as we are nov hearing. There is no
doubt that tt is very hard for the rail-
roads to obtain heavy loans. The Balti-
more d Ohio, when IL wanted $4,000, coo
not long ago, went to England for IE.
During the past season there has been
an unprecedented amount of railroad
building in the west and the market is
flooded with the bonds of these roads.
These bonds are not very eagerly
Isought after and q great many OF the
roads are now in the market try
ing to place large loans; the Burlington
q Quincy wants $10,0o0,000, the Mil
waukea $40, 000, 900 and many other
large amounts, and the money for these
loans is coming very slowly, and the
men who W stock say that the money
market is tight stock trading has not
been very profitable during the past
year, an. untold amount OF capital
has come west end more is coming, the
Wall street men are hard pressed. There
may be something like q panic on the
street, bnt in sixty or ninety days
money will be freer than it has been for
q long time. The roads are oil, as yon
know, checking the building to the west
OF here for they have got mere down
than the country is yet coed for. This
Will take the pressure OF
county railroad bonds ard like
securities off the market and tighten
things up. The depression is only from
such influence as these. There is no
real reason for the money tightnese ,
Crops are good, business of every kid
ia in q splendid condition, better than
for years. And I want you to understand
that what / have said about tightness
refers only to the stock market. There
ID all the money you want for mercantile
and real estate investments for there is
plenty Of wealth for Investment in this
country, and o tightness and bad feeling
in the etook market will only tend to
drive 1t to such Investments. There is
no cause Tor the weat growing uneasy on
account of the reports sent out from
street"

CLEVELAND PENSION RECORD.
slr. Mcpherson, Secretary of the IL

Mr.. Mcpherson, Secretary Of the re
publican National COMMITTEE, Punc-
lures Some Wild Claims.
Dubuque, Special, Sept. Ex-senator
Allison has received the following letter
from Edward MCPHERSON;
The statement tA which yon ask my at
teption, respecting President Cleve-
lands official record on union soifiers,n
copied from from the National View, q
Washington paper, bears the marks of
preparation for a purpose. Tbbt pu :
pose is TO show that the Cleveland ad-
ministretion IS mot entitled to the 9
epeet aud confidence of tie union
soldiery of the country than the admin
istration of either Grant, or Hayes, or
Arthur. 1t seeks to make the impression
that Cleveland has been more liberal
and more inst to the soldiery than either
of his predecessors. And it claims, in
terms, that Cleveland has approved
seventy sever more private pension bills
than Grant and Hayes combined,and 127
more than Arthur. The statement is
falee both in its assertions and its sug
gestions. AS to its assertions. The pen
sion story of the forty-ninth congress is
this:
Pension bills passed in the two sessions. $40
Bills approved by Cleveiand........,6Gs
Bills vetoed by oleveland.............1A
Bills become laws by lapse of time with
out Cloveland's approval ...........1 b6
Bills 'pocketed" by Cleveland ......... i

Popular Education,

We sympathize with the feeling which
often leads citizens to boast that no
child born in this country need grow up
in Ignorance, and yet it is a fact that
many people who have learned to read
and write have never taught themselves
to think. A mar who suffered from cat
arb, consumption, bronchitis, scrofola,
or liver complaint !" might read, till his
eyes dropped ont, how these and many
other diseases have been cured by DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, but
if he did not take the lesson to himself
and test the virtues OF this great medl-
cine, his time would be thrown away.

The truth is that President Cleveland
approved" about two-thirds OF the bills
passed, vetoed" over one.eighth.
..dodged" all to the remaider. AS to the
suggestions of statement. Its purpose
is to contrast the Grant, Hayes and
Arthur records with 4leyeland's to the
advantage of the latter, Now what are
the faots about these administrations?
OF the 493 pension bills passed under
the Grant administration, Grant vetoed
eight. Two because the claimants
names were then on the pension roll.
Another because the clause In the act
about the minor children of the soldier
hnd no meaning. Three were vetoed
because fhe names OF the claimants were
borne on the army rolls as deserters,
Another because the name OF the PEN
sioner was not correctly given. And the
last, because the soldiers company
4S5. Uuder Hayes 303 private pension
bill was passed. He approved them all.
Under Arthur, 739 private pension bills
were passed by congress. He approved
them ALI Olevelend's approvaIs were
but 668 out of 949 passed, and ..re thus
l20 less than Grants and Hayes COM
oAaSAs "ha W AOcp elnh lAhuuE - OuE Ol d
total l53 greater than the former and
213 greater than the latter. 1t is true,
as claimed, that Cleveland signed the
widows increase bill and the crippled
soldiers increase bill. It is also true
that he signed the Mexican war pension
bill, which awards q service pension as
distinguished from u disability pension
to the soldiers of that war. But it is
also true. that within ten days there
after he vetoed the bill which proposed
application Of substantially the same
principle to the soldiers OF the army OF
the union. His friends have.the Hoor to
align that extraordinary discrimination
against the union soldiery with this ex-
traordinary pretension of friendship for
them. Ii is q part Of the same pro.
gramme to claim, also, that az this date
there are more union soldiers in the
government service than at any previous
period. / ara warranted in saying that
until this last aclaim be clearly
proved by published lists of re.
movals and appointments made, il, must
suffer from the diseredit thrown upon
its twin. Undoubtedly the pension
office is doing q great deal Of work.
Congress intended it should, when the
additional agents and clerks literally
given shat Office to-meet the new and
increasing demands upon it left it's chief
without excuse for delays. Had the
commissioner of pensions been less
vigorous in administration, he would
have been simply derelict in duty. But
that fact does not hide from the public
the other fact that while he has been
granting many pensions to Union
soldiers, end widely advertising it, his
own immediate chief and indeed The
whole administration haze been engage
ed, without advertising It,in making an
average, by providing comfortable and
responsible department positions for
large numbers of representative kuklux

The CITIZEN will endeavor at al times to be within bounds in this re- spect. We have seen the evIl influence exerted among poor and rich by too rosy tales about mines, and in cases, too, as here now, wherein the plain truth would have brought steady and permanent advantages. We are very anxious to publish in the most con spiccus manner sn account of ALL the big chunks of silver found-but no more; of ALL the rich and large quartz lodes of silver and gold, but no more. The facts, we gre sure, are enough to excite anyone to come here. who is in any manner disposed 10 come, or to go anywhere to mine or operate in mines.

'' 'Tis swset to hsar tse watch doG's honest bark Bsy deep mouthsd welcome as wo dfa" near

 So said the CITIZEN man as he wend- cd his way home late last night. He mad been spending a few heavenly hours with bis sweet love, and he was Tn condition of such abieot softuess that he could hardly refrain from melting ss be walked. So. to relieve his surchsrged bosom, hs indulged in a little Byron, intending to continue the lines till he got to where first and passionate love Is declared to be sweeter than the watch dOg's honest bark, but iust as be finished the couplet quoted above, twer- ty Mexican watch dogs Eith their Indi- vidual honest bark, came around a cor ner, discovered he love sick paper man, and proceed to locate on him. When they had finIsLCd their business with him, bis dream of love -wGs gone, his nerves were shattered, and his 6dmirs- tion for dogs, with CT WiGhout ba;k, was most eHsctually dispelled.
 The dogs know well whom they attack, snd whom to leave alone, and are the very persO1ificatiCn of all that i3 mean and filthy and cowsrdly. There IS per hsps breed of dogs somewhere in the world, that merits favor or admiration, but Ihe Tucson breed IS enough to dis gust one permanently, with the whole canine race. There isn't anything even funny in them. They are hungry, uai- i'd, mean, trescherous, sneakIng and cowardly. We venture to say that the food fed tO and consumed by the mon grel cur dogs oi Tucson, daily, if sold and the proceeds put at interest ID a savings baDk ard the bank didn't fa'l and everything went smoothly, that 1t uld pay the national debt in course of time.
